Hi All,

Seeking some assistance as I'm a RANCID noob. Have had no issues getting Cisco devices to work, however no luck with HPE switches.

I have a large environment of HPE switches which run COMEWARE v7. I found the following device scripts by JRBINKS at the following link: https://sites.google.com/site/jrbinks/code/rancid/cmwrancid

When I attempt to run a test against my device, I get the following error:

rancid at testrancidserver:~/bin$ ./rancid -d -t cmw aubneleaf3a0508
loadtype: device type cmw
loadtype: found device type cmw in /etc/rancid/rancid.types.conf
loadtype: loading cmw failed: Can't locate cmw.pm in @INC (you may need to install the cmw module) (@INC contains: /etc/perl /usr/local/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl/5.26.1 /usr/local/share/perl/5.26.1 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl5/5.26 /usr/share/perl5 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl/5.26 /usr/share/perl/5.26 /usr/local/lib/site_perl /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl-base /usr/share/perl5/rancid) at /usr/share/perl5/rancid/rancid.pm line 257.
Couldn't load device type spec for cmw

Server: Ubuntu x64 18.04
Rancid version 3.7

>From /etc/rancid/rancid.conf
BASEDIR=/var/lib/rancid; export BASEDIR
PATH=/usr/lib/rancid/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/bin:/usr/local/bin; export PATH

I've copied cmwlogin to /var/lib/rancid/bin
I've copied cmw.pm to /var/lib

rancid at aubnesrv7rancid1:~/bin$ pwd
/var/lib/rancid/bin
rancid at aubnesrv7rancid1:~/bin$ ls cmwlogin -l
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 30304 Dec 19 15:18 cmwlogin

Anyone able to assist?

Kind Regards
Aaron
